There was a flash of joy in the man's eyes, but then the joy froze on his face.

Sikong Xiao pulled out his long sword, narrowed his eyes with interest, and said playfully: "But if you will harm other women of good families in the future, I can only do some to you... Hehe......"

*

At dawn the next day, Sikong Xiao, who had rested all night, recovered a little of his spirit, and the wounds on his body no longer bleed, but they had not healed yet.

"Master, are we really leaving? Your wounds are not yet complete, what if the wounds crack open again along the way?"

Sikong smiled and patted Xiao Shuiling's head, "It's okay." ”

Xiao Shui Ling frowned, "Then where are we going?"

Sikong smiled and didn't answer, pushed open the door of the wooden house and looked out carefully, the sky was just dawning, most of the people living in the village were hunters, but there was no one at the moment, his eyes turned to the horse shed of his own family, and he accidentally found a little donkey.

took a beaded flower from his head and threw it into the arms of the man who was still unconscious, and said, "Borrow your little donkey for use, little Shui Ling, let's go to Yong'an." ”

Ghost Temple

"Ghost Emperor, there has been a strange news spreading on the edge of our ghost world recently, and my subordinates feel that something is wrong, and I ask the Ghost Emperor to send someone to investigate carefully!"

Hearing this, the evil spirit put down the file in his hand, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What news?" ”

"It is said that the ladder has reappeared, and the new head of the ancient family, Gu Xiao, is the guardian of the ladder, and if you want to ascend to the upper realm, you must be favored by this guardian......"

When the ghost sent to this point, the evil spirit's gaze had changed, and then he said, "Now many spiritual cultivators have believed in this news of unknown origin, and the ancient family land has been surrounded by groups, and the other ...... There are many people from the Hidden World Continent and the Elysian Continent. ”

"How so, where did this come from?"

"The two ghost generals of Tempest and Deception sent people out to investigate, and according to them, this news was spread by the Gu Huang faction. ”

Hearing this, the evil spirit smiled sneeringly, shook his head and continued to look at the file, "Gu Huang killed them in order to control the Gu family, and they didn't enter the reincarnation and stayed in the ghost realm for a long time, isn't it just to take revenge? I think they can't wait to pin Gu Huang for the war between the Four Kingdoms and the Hidden World Continent, how can they believe what they say?"

"What the Ghost Emperor said is extremely true. ”

The evil spirit pen did not know what to draw on the dossier, then stopped the pen and blew, smiled slowly, and said with a smile on the corner of his lips: "But that's fine." ”

"What does the Ghost Emperor mean by this?"

The evil spirit's body moved back slightly, and sighed, "I see that Sikong Laughter is coming, I'm afraid that it will hurt her soul after a long time, if she can come to the ghost world earlier, I can still protect her one or two, otherwise ......"

With another sigh, the evil spirit turned his eyes to look out the window, and the dark sky as deep as midnight reminded him of Sikong Xiao's eyes.

"Master~"

"Huh?" Sikong Xiao lifted the broken straw hat on his face to shade the sun, and turned his eyes to look at the place where Xiao Shuiling pointed, and the three big words "Qinglong Town" came into view.

Searching one side in his mind, Sikong smiled and couldn't help but mourn in silence, this Qinglong Town is a small town on the border of Chen State, and the Yong'an Palace, which was once the capital of Liang State, is one north and one south, it is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, with his current situation, how long will it take to get to Yong'an?

"If you want to enter the town, please pay a spirit stone coin first. ”

Sikong smiled and thought about it, and took out a few first-grade spirit beasts that he killed on the way, "How many spirit stone coins are this worth?"

The guard glanced at Sikong and smiled, "Ten of you, do you want to change?"

"Well, thank you. ”

Sikong Xiao took the nine spirit stone coins handed by the guard, and drove the little donkey into Qinglong Town, the town is not big, and the consumption is not high, Sikong Xiao first went to the pawnshop to buy all the jewelry on his body, and then went to the ready-to-wear shop to buy three or four clothes.

"Master~ How did you buy such ugly clothes?"

Xiao Shui Ling has turned into the appearance of a hairpin, fortunately there is Xiao Shui Ling, and she has become Sikong Xiao's only jewelry, otherwise she will have to walk around the street with her hair scattered.

At this moment, Xiao Shui Ling was looking at the clothes on Sikong Xiao's body with disgust, the color and style were as old-fashioned as they were, and they didn't match his blue and translucent color at all!

Sikong smiled and glared at Xiao Shuiling angrily, "Your master, I want to save money, and how good this color is, I can't see the bleeding from the wound halfway, and... You should have recovered a little bit, right? Can you change your appearance, preferably inconspicuous? ”

Although Xiao Shui Ling was reluctant, he still obediently turned into a simple and unpretentious hosta that looked like a mortal thing.

Sikong Xiao walked around the street and didn't see a sign similar to "medical hall", he felt strange in his heart, and pulled a passerby to ask, only to know that only in the city can there be a doctor in the Shikoku continent today.

Because a small town like Qinglong Town, which has no protective array, is likely to become a ruin in the blink of an eye in the collision of those masters, who will still be here if they want to live well......

His eyes sank a little, Sikong smiled and walked to the stone wall next to the street and sat in the corner, raised his head and said slowly: "Xiao Shui Ling, do you think I have been standing on a high place for too long?"

"Why does the master think that?"

The little water spirit turned into a phantom and appeared in front of Sikong Xiao's eyes, a pair of big blue eyes full of worship.

"The master is now the best tenth order, and after three months, maybe he can break through to the eleventh order, then it is only one step away from soaring, even that Ming Nianyue has not improved his cultivation so quickly, and the master has always stood at the peak!"

Sikong smiled and looked at the excited little water spirit, but his black eyes gradually lost focus, "What do you say the spiritual cultivator is cultivating...?"

"I thought I could stand outside the war and just look for the freedom I wanted, but now I feel that this so-called freedom... It's just an escape from my own deception......"

Xiao Shui Ling scratched her little head, she didn't understand what Sikong Xiao meant, and blinked her big eyes, "Then what does the master want to do now?"

Sikong Xiao's eyes showed a slight look of thought, and the dark eyes that were deep and invisible, seemed to be filled with something unknown.

Xiao Shuiling tilted his head, suddenly leaned over to the tip of Sikong Xiao's nose and rubbed it, and said softly: "No matter what the master wants to do, I will always accompany the master~~"

"Heh..."Sikong smiled, and gently rubbed Xiao Shuiling's head, "No matter what, I have to go back to Yong'an as soon as possible." ”

"Is the master worried about your sister Huang?"

Sikong Xiao stood up, walked to the place where he stored the little donkey, and said very heavily: "Sister Huang must not have an accident." ”

Yong'an Palace

A month passed in a flash, and Sikong Huang leaned against the door of his dormitory, his back looking extremely thin, and even a little shaped.

Lifeng put a thick cloak on the emaciated man from behind, and couldn't help but persuade: "Master, everyone has gone to find it, you can rest assured." ”

Sikong Huang's expression was a little sluggish, her eyes stared at the direction of the palace gate for a moment, and she held a hairpin inlaid with sapphires tightly in her hand.

That was one of the jewelry that Sikong Xiao had lost in Qinglong Town, and it was found by the people in Sikong Huang's dark department half a month ago.
